Is a cluttered desk adding to the chaos of your workday?

According towww.privacysense.net, “The IDC (International Data Corporation in the US) reported, a typical employee in your organization spends 2.5 hours a day searching for information. Assuming the knowledge workers in your organization earn $80,000 a year, a 1000-person organization loses approximately $2.5 million dollars a year from the inability to locate and retrieve information.”

Enter Kate Emmerson, the Desk Diva, who has created Desk Day, which aims to educate South Africans on better productivity through de-cluttering. Desk Day also celebrates a lighter, more productive Spring season, by doing the necessary and clearing of desks.

There’s also an awesome competition valued at R15 000. In order to motivate and mobilise South Africans to celebrate Desk Day 2016 – Kate Emmerson invites individuals / units / regional teams and businesses to nominate each other to take on the Desk Challenge!

Thereafter, one lucky office will WIN an exclusive Office Productivity Course with Kate Emmerson. On Friday, 30 September (Desk Day 2016), Kate Emmerson will personally visit your office and spend four hours with you and your colleagues, clearing clutter and inspiring all staff members – to LIVE LIGHT, LIVE LARGE.
